Richie Turner (17) was crowned for the scond straight year the Hartson Total Opening Renegades champion with his fifth place finish. It would be Taylor Rental Championship Night from the Airborne Speedway to finish the 2023 racing season with the J+S Steel Sportsman Modified, Hartson Total Opening Renegades, Taylor Rental Street Stocks, and the Northern Blacktopping Limited Sportsman Modified and all the points races would still be up for grabs. The night would start off with the makeup feature for the Taylor Rental Street Stocks. The night would start off well for championship hopeful Ryan Senecal as he would start on the front row and lead all fifteen laps for the win and keep his championship alive. As for the guys leading the points, Josh Laporte would finish 2nd, Jake Fountain fifth and Matt LaValley seventh giving Laporte a slight lead as they would have their second feature to finish off the night. Then it would be onto all the heat races for the racing championship night. Then the features for the last race of the season and first up would be the traveling tour that joined us on the night the Mohawk Valley Vintage Dirt Modifieds and their four divisions would see Frank Hoard Jr., Greg Hauslin, George Palmer, Jack Miller and Nathan McFadden getting the wins. Then it would be onto the Northern Blacktopping Limited Sportsman Modified for 15 laps and getting the last win of the season in the nonpoints event would be Robert Laware for his second win of the year. Then it would be onto the J+S Steel Sportsman Modified for there 25 lap championship event and it would see Craig Wholey and Chris Cayea starting on the front row Wholey would lead the first few laps and then Chris Cayea would overtake him and try and go and hide out there. He would have a challenge though as Josh Jock and his second-half-season surge would continue but Cayea would get the win. Although Travis Bruno would finish in seventh and Joey Scarbrough fifth giving Travis Bruno his third straight track championship. Then it would be onto the Hartson Total Opening Renegades. It would see Tyler Irwin getting the lead at the start of the race but Josh Terry would come charging hard from his seventh-place start to get up there and battle with Irwin for the win knowing he pretty much needed to win to get the title. Richir Turner would start in fifth and fall back off the start to tenth and then just start working his way back up and get a fifth-place finish and clinch his second straight championship title. Then there would be one race left on the season at Airborne Speedway and that would be the Taylor Rental Street Stock for 15 laps with 32 cars starting the race every spot would be important and there would be 8 cautions throughout the night. Speedy Bressette would charge from his seventh-place starting spot to get the eventual win with Ryan Senecal second and Rick Doner third, As for the championship we would have co-champions when it was all said and done with Josh Laporte and Ryan Senecal champions with their 9th and 21st place finish on the night and that will put a wrap on the 2023 season at the Airborne Speedway.
